Two different topics are analyzed: i) the strengths of both universities and ii) their complementarities. The analysis is based on research articles in the Scopus database. The methodology has been applied to seven collaboration scenarios for Tecnologico de Monterrey. The results of our methodology are illustrated via a case study with six Chinese universities. The methodology is shown to be relevant for establishing academic and research relationships.

In this work, we identify three deficiencies in Mexico's entrepreneurship ecosystem: research skills, high technology, and technology transfer. We then present a solution that has been recognized by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) for fueling high-tech university spin-offs with science and technology doctoral research. Lessons from 48 spin-off projects are synthesized in the newly proposed REPITA model, which prescribes connecting a basic research platform to applications, catalyzing the entrepreneurship ecosystem with resources and incentives, combining highly specialized people in entrepreneurial teams, setting generous and flexible intellectual property policies for the knowledge economy, transferring technology per entry and exit strategies, and aligning technology and business incubation. Finally, we propose a tool that presents academic entrepreneurship theories in an actionable format for university administrators and entrepreneurs. These results are not a theoretical framework on their own, but rather a real-world organizational model based on theory for impelling technology-based, academic spin-offs with economic impact. Taken together, this contribution may be useful to practitioners and provocative for researchers.

Scientometric results support the hypothesis that a knowledge management model increased research collaboration and thereby boosted a university's number of publications and citations. Results come from fifteen years of data at a Mexican university with 2400 researchers who produced 24,000 works in fifteen research disciplines. These data are treated with social network visualizations and algorithms to identify patterns of collaboration and clustering, as well as with normalizations to make disciplines comparable and to verify increasing citation impact. The knowledge management model implemented in the study may be a costeffective way for universities to intensify collaboration and improve research performance.

After a literature review process and the review of how research activities with undergraduate students are promoted and coordinated in top ranked universities, the authors suggest three different approaches a university can follow for integrating research-based learning into the undergraduate curriculum: the stand alone approach, the attachment approach and the inserted approach. In the inserted approach an undergraduate student is interested in doing research out of her/his personal interest and the university supports these students by integrating them into research groups. The experiences and results of designing and implementing the inserted approach in the Tecnológico de Monterrey are presented in this paper, together with the integration of this program in the Knowledge-based Development model of the University that integrates the Research Chairs and Incubation Cells initiatives.

One important element to be considered during the VBE operation life-cycle stage is value generation. A virtual breeding environment is a “value network” that should create different types of values such as goods, services, revenue, knowledge, and/or intangible benefits (Allee, 2000). Aimed to achieve the identification of values generated in a breeding environment, the present article reports research issues related to the definition of the VBE value system and metrics. The VBE value system presented in this article will include the identification of the value generation objects (or capitals) in a virtual breeding environment and its performance measurement system, involving not only financial value generation objects but also the intellectual value generation objects (such as human capital...

Tecnológico de Monterrey is promoting research education among undergraduate students. The Internship in Research and Innovation Program (IRIP) was developed to instill those students with the skills and a motivation to include research and innovation as part of their curriculum. IRIP is a component of the Knowledge-based Development (KBD) model at Tecnológico de Monterrey, one of the central strategies that are consolidating it as a world-class teaching, research and entrepreneurial university. Different outcomes have been achieved since IRIP began, with close relations with the research groups called Research Chairs. The results of the research include international publications, technical developments, innovations and patents, industrial research projects, and an increase in the training of researchers. The purpose of this paper is to present the conceptual and operational model of IRIP as an approach that, using Research-Based Learning (RBL) techniques, facilitates the integration of undergraduate students in research activities. After a summary and comparison of how research activities with undergraduate students are promoted in the top ranked universities, the different approaches (stand-alone, attachment and inserted) that a university can follow for integrating RBL into the undergraduate curriculum are discussed.

U.S. News & World Report (U.S. News) first published America's Best Colleges, which ranked colleges and universities in the United States, in 1983. This was the first major higher education ranking in the world, and it became extremely popular. Thirty years later, U.S. News was not, however, the first organization to produce an international ranking comparing universities across different countries. U.S. News finally entered the world ranking stage with its inaugural Best Global Universities (BGU) in 2014. Globalization, advances in Data Analytics and Scientometrics, and rising demand for higher education have produced a proliferation of rankings and

Collaboration is a key issue to rapidly answer market demands in a manufacturing company, through sharing competencies and resources. The Collaborative Networked Organizations (CNO) area focuses on this type of organizational models that use ICT for supporting the development of collaborative business opportunities. This paper describes the key concepts related to CNOs, provides a high level classification of collaborative networks, and presents some application cases in the manufacturing industry. Finally a holistic research initiative addressing key challenges in the area is presented and a discussion of the CNO paradigm contribution to the challenges faced by manufacturing systems is made.

A platform that integrates and facilitates the operation in Virtual Organizations focused in manufactured product development, is an important tool that supports a rapid respond to customers, and improve the communication among its members. This paper present a way to improve business process in a VO based on the development and use of a CEE. The methodology presented in this paper was implemented in a real manufacturing VO, improving the product transfer process: the coordinators of each business opportunity easily manage VO information, and VO partners were totally involved during the process.
